Heavy Duty Steel Shelving Storage Racking System by Herochu – engineered for metal fabrication shops that refuse to compromise on strength, precision, or floor space. Built from certified structural steel and finished with a rugged powder-coated shield, this rack series turns loose cut sheets into a high-density, instantly accessible inventory, all while starting at $9,800 and scaling to the exact footprint of your workshop.
Herochu racks are not generic warehouse furniture. Every upright, arm, and brace is cut from hot-rolled, anti-rust steel and welded to tolerances tighter than the sheets it will hold. The result is a CE-, UE-, and ISO 9001-certified structure that carries 2 tonnes per layer across spans up to six metres—long enough to cradle an entire 4 × 2 metre aluminium plate without a hint of deflection. Corrosion protection, ESD-safe coatings, and a foldable configuration option give the system the longevity demanded by high-throughput fabrication environments.
Space is the scarcest commodity in a modern shop. Traditional flat stacking devours square footage and buries valuable remnants. Herochu’s vertical cantilever design exploits ceiling height instead, reclaiming up to forty percent of floor area for machining centres, welding booths, or new contracts. Five-, eight-, or four-layer configurations slot into bays as narrow as 2.5 m and climb to 15 ft under standard roofs, while mobile-shelving bases allow entire banks of material to glide aside on demand. The footprint stays compact; the capacity multiplies.
Accessibility drives daily velocity. Each tier features tapered arms or pull-out trays that present sheets edge-first, eliminating the dangerous hunt through leaning stacks. QR-coded labels or simple colour strips placed on the rack face reduce retrieval time from minutes to seconds; one Ohio fabricator reported fifteen minutes saved per shift after installing three Herochu units. When remnants are visible and reachable, they are reused instead of scrapped—cutting annual metal spend by ten to fifteen percent and turning yesterday’s off-cut into tomorrow’s profit.
Installation is treated as part of the product, not an afterthought. Herochu supplies pre-drilled bases, laser-marked components, and an illustrated field guide that lets a two-person crew anchor a full bay in under two hours. Cantilever uprights bolt directly to existing concrete without special anchors, and every arm locks with a single pin—no welding, no cutting, no downtime. Should workflows evolve, add-on arms, extra tiers, or powered retrieval modules bolt on with the same ease, preserving the original investment.
Safety and compliance are embedded, not laminated. Load plaques on every upright certify 2 T per layer at a 1.4 safety factor; seismic calculations are available on request. The powder-coated finish is electrostatically applied for edge-to-edge coverage, resisting weld spatter, solvents, and caustic wash-downs common in metal service centres. Each rack ships with ESD grounding points, protecting sensitive stainless and aluminium from stray current during handling.
From aerospace prototyping to automotive stamping, Herochu’s Heavy Duty Steel Shelving Storage Racking System adapts. Standard bay sizes—2500 × 1300 mm, 3000 × 1500 mm, 4000 × 2000 mm, and 6000 × 2000 mm—drop into existing aisles, while custom heights and arm pitches are quoted within twenty-four hours. Drive-in pallet extensions, automated retrieval shuttles, and fold-out loading tables integrate seamlessly for shops ready to automate without scrapping their current layout.
At $9,800 for a starter bay, the system pays for itself in months through reclaimed labour, reduced scrap, and faster job turnaround. Financing options and volume discounts are available for multi-bay installations, and every unit is backed by a ten-year structural warranty plus lifetime technical support from Herochu’s in-house engineering team.
